Upsert order custom attributeBeta

POST

 /v2/orders/{order_id}/custom-attributes/{custom_attribute_key}

Use this endpoint to set the value of a custom attribute for a specific order. A custom attribute is based on a custom attribute definition in a Square seller account. (To create a custom attribute definition, use the CreateOrderCustomAttributeDefinition endpoint.)

To create or update a custom attribute owned by another application, the visibility setting must be VISIBILITY_READ_WRITE_VALUES. Note that seller-defined custom attributes (also known as custom fields) are always set to VISIBILITY_READ_WRITE_VALUES.
